“What A Bullet Can Do”

Here it is: “What A Bullet Can Do,” another essay about an unintentional shooting from my childhood, in which I write about various works of literature that helped me, as an adult, to process the shooting and its aftermath. Along the way, readers learn more about what happened and the particular ways in which this incident has held onto me all these years. Huge thanks go out to Hazlitt and editor Haley Cullingham, who worked on this with me for months. I feel so fortunate to have had such an engaged and compassionate editor by my side.
